The Post-Star from Glens Falls, New York (2024)

1 THE POST-STAR, GLENS FALLS, N. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, ENVISAGES SCHOOL DISTRICT HELP TO VILLAGE Tells Rotary More Opportunity for Education Possible at Less. Cost SEES STATE -APPROVING Governor Would Appoint Commssion. to Carry Out Plan Leon R. Lewis, past president of the Hudson Falls Rotary Club, in addressing that organization Carleton Hotel yesterday during the weekly luncheon, noon at The declared that, generally speaking, the peopie of the state of approve the of the plan disfor centralization school tricts.

Mr. Lewis' subject was; "The Re: districting Bill," which relates to proposed legislation for new division of school districts. The speaker stated that through centralized schools he believed that better teaching staffs can be engaged, more efficient administration of the affairs of the district. be made possible and more admay vantage provided through libraries and other facilities. The bill, if passed, said Mr.

Lewis, provides for the, appointment of a commission to carry out the redistricting program, which will include the schools of the state except the first districts in the Counties of Kings, Queens and Richmond. The governor will appoint the members of the commission, Mr. Lewis expressed the belief that As Hudson Falls has in the past been more closely dependent upon manufacturing than it is now it is the opportune time to tie up more strongly with the interests of agriculture. He pointed out that the agriculture course being pursued in the local schools, cannot fall to prove of benefit to the community in general. If the proposed legislation is adopted, the speaker said, Hudson Falls can be the center of a central school- system.

Mr. Lewis expressed the belief that Hudson Falls would profit financially it the bill should become law -35 many more students would be enrolled in the publie schools. Mass education is under way and the rural students, if they are enrolled in the village schools, will help greatly in reducing the tax load, continued the speaker. In the central- districts that are already operating, the burden on the taxpayers has been decreased, Mr. Lewis added.

Mr. Lewis expressed regret that when and if the bill is passed Hudson Falls will have but two members from the present school district. on the board of education. Where the board now, consists of nine members In District 1, seven of the total will be elected outside of the present limits of the school He said the area to this district is not yet known but that it will doubtless be extended both in an easterly and northerly direction.

SERIOUS FLOOD THREAT AVERTED Falling Temperatures Allevi- ate Fears in Western New York Area BUFFALO, N. Feb. 20 (P)- Falling temperatures late today alleviated fears of serious floods after weekend rains and a thaw swelled streams throughout western and central New York. Rivers and creeks overflowed their banks in sections, inundating hundreds of acres of farmland. Several families were marooned in Lancaster, Erie County, by flood waters of Cayuga Creek.

Observers in an airplane (Gannett newspaper) reported roads in the upper Genesee River Valley under two to five feet of water, while highways in the southern tier lay under four or five feet of water. Some 50 homes in the vicinity of Hornell were completely, surroundROD Highways between Hornell and North Hord and Canisteo were I hiacked by. waters of The Chadakoin River overflowed below Frewsburg and covered section of the principal JamestownWarren, highway to the depth of foot, motor traffic was halted over this artery. Several homes in the vicinity of Jamestown were surrounded by water. Temperatures which reached 50 early today in Buffalo dropped to 29 at 3 P.

M. (E. 8. and Senior Meteorologist James H. Spencer forecast a low of about 14 tonight or tomorrow in western New York.

Springlike temperatures were general throughout upstate New York, reaching 61 at Syracuse and Binghamton. Early reports at Binghamton, center of disastrous floods in 1935 and 1936, said waters at the confluence of the Susquehanna and Chenango Rivers were rising. Twenty hours of rain in the Syracuse area sent Onondaga Creek out of its bank and flooded flatlands A temperature drop expected there gave city officials hope that flood conditions might not become serious. A flood crest in the Genesee Valley swept over the Mt. Morris dam, reaching at one time a depth of 10 feet above the top of the dam, highest in at least 10 years.

At Rochester all sections of the Court Street dam were opened to give the flood crest free flow. Dynamite broke two ice jams on the Canisteo River late today. Many streets in Addison were covered for a short time with two feet of water when the breaking of an ice jam above the village released thousands of gallons of water. Loaded coal cars were placed the length of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad bridge at Addison to keep it from being swept away when another ice jam was dynamited. The Chemung River at Corning rose four feet in eight hours and lowlands were flooded but Mayor Daniel Stimson said he believed the river had reached its crest and the city was in no danger.

The Chemung River was 11 feet above normal but large levees protect the city. FIVE TEACHERS ILL CORINTH. Five teachers were absent due to illness from their duties in the Corinth High School yesterday. They were Donald Hotaling, John A. MacMorris, William D.

By implication he denounced President Roosevelt's 1937 "quarantine-the-aggressors" speech in Chicago and called Secretary Ickes "Harold (Helium) Ickes," referring to the secretary's refusal. to allow shipment of helium to Germany, Following Wheeler-Hall Bund functionary intoned the pledge of allegiance to the United States flag as 8 pipe organ rumbled softly. A double line of young girls paraded into the hall. Mothers leaned forward to give the Nazi salute. The Rev.

8. G. Van Bosse of Philadelphis drew cheers from the audience when he approvingly mentioned Senators William E. Borah (R-Idaho) and Gerald P. Nye (R-ND), and boos when he referred to Secretaries Perkins and Hopkins and Attorney General Murphy, Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, and "the Sons of Judes." The applause swelled again when he said, "if George Washington were alive today he would still be friend of the Germans," and when he praised Washington's injunction against "entangling alliances." It thundered again when he quoted Hitler as saying Germany had never fought against the American people on their own soil.

"What America needs is a return from Democratic misrule to the Republican principles for which Washington fought," he said. "The battie lines are not drawn so much between Democracy and Fascism as between Communism and Fascism. There is no in-between line." One of the most prolonged ovations of the evening greeted the name of the Rev. Charles E. CoughIn of Detroit, mentioned by George Froebese of Milwaukee, the Bund's uniformed midwestern director.

Froebese's speech turned quickly to a tirade against Jewry. He denounced "all international Marxists and Jewish leeches of class, warfare." "Jewish international money interests and Jewish agitators," he shouted, "are supposed to represent labor, but have never worked a day in their lives. "Our labor movement must be led by conscientious Gentile leaders who are absolutely free from Communist- applause drowned out the rest of his sentence. Rudolph Markmann, the Bund's eastern leader, obliquely facing 8 banner reading, Bund members by 1940," derided the "Nazi Boos swelled from the crowd again when G. W.

Kunze, the Bund's national director, referred to President Roosevelt as "Franklin Rosenfeld." The first indoors disturbance 00- curred during his speech when Dorothy Thompson, New York Herald Tribune syndicate columnist, shouted "bunk," from the press table. She was led out but, claiming 8 constitutional right to heckle, she returned after Heywood Broun, New York World- Telegram columnist who often dissents from her views, went to her and yelled "bunk" again. Declaring that "thefe is no free radio for white men, Kunze suggested, the chains "cease giving the people tre trash of the Cantors, Winchells and Bernsteins, and give them instead the voice of one who speaks American- without an The man who introduced Kunze praised Rep. Martin Dies chairman of the committee investigating unAmerican activities, as "our patriotic congressman." The "storm troopers" were sent to the Garden by Fritz Kuhn, Bund head, who said 3,000 would help to maintain order. The pickets represented the Socialist Workers Party and other rally protestants.

The police detail was under the personal direction of Commissioner Lewis J. Valentine and Chief Inspector Louis F. Costuma. A 24-hour police guard had been posted at the Garden since last Saturday, when a letter signed by "the Alparolists League" warned Mayor LaGuardia against "serious consequences" and bomb explosions if the rally were held. Ernest Rice, organizer of the New York local of the Socialist Workers Party, characterized the bomb scare reports as "deliberate provocations by Fascists against contemplated anti-Fascist action." Bund officials said the rally was an "Americanism" meeting and celebration of Washington's Birthday.

The Socialist Workers Party contended they had the constitutional right to peaceful picketing and they did not ask for a permit for their demonstration. Acting Captain Charles Beech, in charge of the advance police detail which arrived at the Garden shortly after noon, said he had orders to prevent picketing in the vicinity of the Garden. Five captains, 120 sergeants, 1,200 patrolmen, five mounted sergeants, 50 mounted patrolmen, 10 lieutenants, 100 detectives, including men from the criminal; alien and bomb and forgery squads were mobilized. American Legion Posts and other organizations protested the meeting.
